Enhanced Rate of Nerve Regeneration and Directional Errors After Sciatic Nerve Injury in Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase ς Knock-Out Mice
Abstract
The receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase sigma (PTPsigma) is a member of the mammalian leukocyte common antigen-related (LAR) family. Its expression is developmentally regulated in neuronal tissues. The Drosophila homolog of the mammalian LAR family of phosphatases (DLAR) controls axon guidance during Drosophila embryogenesis. We have demonstrated previously that mice deficient in PTPsigma have CNS and peripheral nervous system abnormalities. …
